So, let's talk about the weekend, shall we?
First order of business was a shopping trip. A shopping trip where we rather foolishly went and said "okay, let's get a Costco membership!" and then proceeded to spend WAY TOO MUCH MONEY getting it. And when I say "WAY TOO MUCH MONEY" I mean "HOLY SHIT MY SPLEEN!"
So, yeah. Panic ensued.
Then I did my taxes (yeah yeah, shut up). Panic subsided.
Then we realized Keith needs to do his taxes and/or file for an extension. Panic re-ensued.
Then we were like "It's not like we have $200 to throw at the federal government for said taxes right now anyway" and panic re-subsided.
In feline related news, Daniel is still having issues. He's got a few days worth of medicine left and then we need to make another appointment. He's decidedly less uncomfortable than he was, though, so I'm taking it as a good sign. I'm still not convinced one round of medicine is going to be enough, but there's not much else I can do about it right now.
So, getting back to Costco. This membership is going to pay for itself within two months, based on what we bought there this weekend. Some things are much better deals than others. So, we're likely to have a Costco/Meijer combo run regularly. Bread is often cheaper at Meijer, for example, due to being on sale. If we want 2-liter bottles of Soda we have to get it at Meijer. Lunchmeat and cheese can be had at Costco for much cheaper than Meijer. Rice, too. Flour... um. We don't have room for the flour they sell at Costco, so we'll keep buying that at Meijer. We're not sold on the eggs right now, but we'll see. Huge thing of cheap bananas, though, so that was nice.
My WoW account expires this coming Sunday. :( Once we get all caught up (thanks to my taxes) I'll probably be going back. We're just getting good at the raiding thing again. :-p Timing is fantastic, seriously. I mean, we one-shotted Aran for the first time EVER this past friday. He didn't even polymorph the raid. We one-shotted everything we went after (Moroes, Big Bad Wolf, Curator, Aran) so no complaints there. Hopefully tonight's raid happens. We can try new bosses! Illhoof, Netherspite, Prince. Granted, we didn't do Chess on Friday, so we have to do that still, too.
Spent too much time playing City of Villains over the weekend. Not that y'all couldn't already tell that one. Of course, now that I have 50's both hero and villainside I'm just sorta waiting for the next issue. Cuz, ya know, I've done so much already with the flashback system that they put in place... Oh wait... :-p
Well, lunch is almost over. Going to read and get back to work.
